Get Real Health joined forces with Microsoft to help the partner organizations develop a multi-faceted Community Center-based program that combined opportunity for increased physical activity, socialization, self- monitoring of chronic conditions, and health education.
This document describes the implementation of a Scrum TV information radiator to share project information across a large, distributed Agile/Scrum transformation effort involving over 90 Scrum teams. Key challenges included communicating status across distributed teams and offices. The solution utilized a Pega-based model to display real-time project data, metrics, and status on a large LCD display. Information included on three rotating slides included vision team readiness, Scrum team performance metrics, effort/point burn down charts, and a story/task board. The Scrum TV implementation helped address communication challenges through a visible, always-updated information radiator.

This document discusses the role of electric vehicles (EVs) in mitigating climate change. It outlines that transport accounts for 21% of greenhouse gas emissions globally. While there are over 180,000 EVs currently, they only make up 0.02% of the world's vehicle fleet. The document advocates for a balanced "avoid, shift, improve" approach to sustainable urban mobility, where EVs could play a role alongside reducing travel demand, shifting modes, and improving vehicle efficiency. A balanced pathway integrating all strategies is needed for higher effectiveness and co-benefits like improved air quality and congestion.
This document discusses issues of trust in biomedical information technology. It features an interview with Howard R. Asher, the president and CEO of Global Life Sciences, about his experience in the evolution of information technology in the biotech industry over the past 30 years. Asher discusses how trust was important in gaining FDA approval for early medical devices like the artificial heart. He also talks about how trust impacts the use of computational information from biotech across different global regions and regulatory environments. Finally, Asher proposes a vision of how uploading personal health records and genomic data to an "automated telemedicine machine" could improve biotech research by creating a large, trusted data set to study drug therapies and biomarkers.

God created the universe and everything in it over 6 days, including angels and the first humans, Adam and Eve. God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden but told them not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. Lucifer rebelled against God and was cast out of heaven along with other angels. Lucifer, now called Satan, convinced Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, introducing sin into the world. As a result, humans now experience evil, suffering, and death. However, God loved humans and sent Jesus, who lived without sin, to die for humans' sins so they could be saved from eternal death and one day live in a perfect world with God forever.

This document outlines a Chinese cuisine translation app called Foodie created by Bingjie Xu, Jiayi Yan, and Shaoxiang Su. It provides a demo of the app and lists the next steps as adding bookmarks, validating Chinese strings, and improving the user experience.
The document discusses three careers - teacher, journalist, and nurse. For teachers, it notes they provide schooling and are like second parents, requiring good people skills, being challenging but kind, and being responsible and creative. Journalists collect and present information on current events and should enjoy writing, conducting interviews creatively, and be well-organized. Nurses work in healthcare teams to treat and ensure patient safety and recovery, requiring good people skills, hard work, and not being afraid of needles or blood.
The document discusses both slow and fast changes that occur on Earth. Slow changes involve mechanical and chemical weathering over long periods of time, such as erosion from wind and water or rocks breaking down from chemical reactions. Fast changes include sudden natural disasters like landslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. Volcanoes are further explained as coming in different types like shield, cinder, and composite volcanoes. The final section instructs the reader to choose a type of volcano to research and create a PowerPoint presentation about, including labeling parts of a volcano diagram and finding an image of a real volcano.
In June this year, Prof Martin-Sanchez traveled to Heidelberg, Germany to represent HBIR and University of Melbourne participating in a three day scientific symposium "Biomedical Informatics: Confluence of Multiple Disciplines”.
These are the slides from the presentation he gave to the symposium.
Jesus valued children and believed parents and teachers should work together to educate children. The document discusses how a positive relationship between parents and teachers benefits children's academic progress and development. It suggests that when parents and teachers communicate effectively and work as a team with shared responsibility for children's needs, children feel secure and supported in their learning. Barriers to parent-teacher cooperation need to be addressed so both parties can provide valuable insights to best help students.
